Women on social media have been mocking the idea that they always look better without make up.

Often women's selfies are complimented by men for not involving heavy use of cosmetics. A lot of the criticism has centred on one particular tweet, sent out by Twitter account 'Google Facts', which does not appear to be a verified Google account.

The tweet said, 'Studies show that men like women who wear less make up', and then featured a before-and-after collage of supermodel Miranda Kerr, seemingly with and without make up.
